So much nostalgia this year... I wonder who will escort? us through all of it?

 

OK, since nobody else bit, I'll ask the obvious question....Are you hearing rumors of someone returning to usher us around the event?  I vaguely remember someone leaving a message on a prop on the last day of HHN that they'd see us in 26 or something like that.

With two BIG movies already announced and multiple more rumored to be announced soon, I feel like the Usher is the best bet this year. I think marketing FINALLY gets the message that fans want Icons. When marketing took control, we lost them. You can create so much more unique merchandise to sell which i'm sure is a driving factor for having Icons back. However I think the main reason is that it is much easier to promote the event when you have a central character you can put on everything. A large face on a billboard is a lot easier to spot than a bunch of different movie titles. It also makes for a much better commercial. Not to mention the fact that fans love them! They really do tie the whole event together even if you don't see much of them inside the park.

All I ask for is the Universal Palace Theater original that Silver Screams should've been in 09. If they bring him back and do AND-I 4.0, I will be severely disappointed. I'd rather no house for him at all if it's the only option. But if we get a UPT original, the 2 houses announced, and some other rumored houses, I will be VERY excited for this year. I know it won't feel as epic as last year's anniversary, but I think there's potential for a very strong house lineup this year.

I've heard some but not sure of the veracity of the rumor. It may just be wishful thinking by some studious fans.

I wouldn't mind. I felt he was really our last good icon... not saying anything bad about Luck she was completely misused.

Mike just gave us his definition of what a "requel" is. Of course it could be anything from any other year but the requel house could very well fit a UPT house.

He also mentioned that the codenamed "Cobweb" house is taking over the Tent 1 space (prev. purge). Nice to get confirmation on that.

 

Well if you look at the blueprint teaser it's pretty clear it was in a tent. I thought it was two but, without context makes it hard

I really don't think UPT is returning this year. I haven't seen or heard anything supporting it, and know for a fact it wouldn't be in Parade if it were.

 

I don't think it will either especially since you nodded how the "requel" house could be from 2004. I was just going along with all the talk about the Usher possibly returning and a UPT house would match the definition Mike gave.

I dont see the Usher nor the Director coming back.. So can people stop thinking there coming back plz

 

Well if you don't see it ;)

Sounds like you're bitter that they AREN'T?

I've heard nothing "yay" or "nay" on the subject from any sources. But they've all been pretty quiet. I'm guessing you're right though. No icons. More marketing nonsense. One can hope though right?

 

Oh and we have shots of COBWEB on twitter. Here is a link to what I posted on DD just because it's easier for some reason than linking the HHN twitter post. (Twitter can be infuriating at times) Someone else post it directly if you can, busy at work and all.

Anyone have any idea what the hashtag BTS on the construction photos. When I click the link on it it's a lot of jpop and I highly doubt that this house is related to that.

 

Actually its kpop dont ask me how i know this. xD

2 More pics of "Cobweb" on the official twitter page.  Looks like something medieval or gothic.  

(I'm a twittidiot...don't use twitter or understand it.  Feel free to edit/repost/delete this if there's a better way to put in their pics!)

It hasn't been confirmed confirmed, but this doesn't look like the requel I'm expecting.

 

Mike did confirm Cobweb isn't the Requel.

Also, we got a permit for SS 22.
